Sunday is Lesson Planning day.

Sunday in my house you can find me at my desk, books strewn all over the place, fingers flying on the keyboard as I research yet another life lesson or fun event. I am getting a little more used to being at least a bit more organized. I still am a last minute type of person, but am slowly changing for the better of my children.

This week we start a very intense topic, The Holocaust. We will be starting a comparison lesson on the The Boy In The Striped Pajamas by John Boyne, we will later watch the movie and compare similarities and differences between the two. Some items we will be using in the Unit Study will be:

Germany Lesson

WWII History Lesson

WWII Who's Who

The Boy In The Striped Pajamas Lesson Plan

With this being my first year homeschooling, I am not too keen on my planning Unit Studies on my own so TeachersPayTeachers has been my go to site for almost all of my lesson planning.
